METALLICA, SLAYER, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE Confirmed For 'Guitar Hero III'

August 3, 2007

METALLICA's "One", SLAYER's "Raining Blood" and QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE's "3's and 7's" are among the newly confirmed tracks for the upcoming Activision title Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.

As previously reported, former GUNS N' ROSES and current VELVET REVOLVER guitarist Slash will provide an original track for Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, as well as make an appearance in-game as a boss battle character. The legendary guitarist will not, however, be easy to get to: In order to "unlock" Slash (who donned a motion-capture suit so game makers could track his every pluck),players will have to face him in a one-on-one shredding duel after completing all the songs in the game.
